A large Hellenistic Terracotta Figure of Aphrodite, ca. 3rd century BCE Seals - Cylinder 1971) 200 and 206A finely modeled Hellenistic terracotta statuette of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, shown standing gracefully atop an integral plinth base. She is depicted partially nude, with a chiton draped low around her hips, its folds clasped in her left hand. Her right hand rests casually atop a herm (bearded male head set on a pillar), suggesting a dialogue between the erotic and the divine. Aphrodite wears a wreath in her centrally parted hair,
